I didn't even know this horse but there were tears in my eyes when i watched this! At least he past doing what he loved! But now he is in heaven running with all the other past horses! Maybe even running with my horse who past recently!
he died during the world cup competition. You can see it on here, but it was sad because it was on national tv and he had a heart attack while his rider was riding him in the ring. R.I.P. HICKSTEAD
Not everyone is crule and forces their horses to compete. Not everyone is rich either. Truth is horses like to run and jump, thats what they were made to do. Yes some people take it too far but you know what? There are good people. My riding teacher was having money problem and could have taken an offer to start over but she stayed because there was a horse epidmic where I live and many horses died. She helped by taking care of the heathy ones so the sick could be looked at without complication.
if u look it up his artery burst and it was nobodys fault it happens dont go blaming people he loved every jump u can see it the way he runs for one his not forced to jump its in his blood its what he was breed for let him rip
fosse stato un uomo non sarebbe morto così perché avrebbe avuto la possibilità di spiegarsi che non stava bene!!!! Ma è possibile che con tutto l'entourage che aveva attorno, nessuno abbia capito????????????? E hickstead con il suo grande cuore è andato fino in fondo anche se non ce la faceva più, per proteggere il suo cavaliere ed amico, ma forse tanto amico poi non era,perché altrimenti si sarebbe accorto che c'era qualcosa che non andava o no???? Ora galoppa felice nei prati del paradiso!!
If people didn't push these animals these things would't happen.How dare these smug humans make these animals go through such things? They should be outlawed, and their wealth should be put to good use like feeding homeless people who have lost their jobs due to these rich bastards.
I pay respect to the horse, and nothing else. At least we all can see who you'd put first in a competition, yourself. It's people like you that disgust me maddam. It's the owners that forced that poor horse to do things that hurt him. I bet you whip your horse too don't you. And when your horse doesn't jump for you or do what you want, you whip it don't you? Step back and shut up, this comment page is only for the people that know what they're talking about.
"it happens", if "it happens" then perhaps he shouldn't have been competing. If "it happens", then no horse should be jumping. That way it doesn't happen.
I think we just need to agree to disagree on this. No matter what I say its not going to change what you think, and quite frankly I dont really care what you do. Soo yea this is annoying. Kay bye.
This horse was legendary, and this video brought me to tears RIP Hickstead!

it has been noted that artery bursts can happen in the field as well, so should we stop letting our horses out in the paddock too?

No? This can happen in the stables or in fences too
I'm going to agree to disagree and leave it at that.
